It has happened 3 times now where voice chat is not working when I start playing and join on an already active guild ship. Both of us can not hear each other, nor can we see each others voice bubble pop up. When either of us joins a random on another ship, voice chat works just fine. Then when going back to the guild ship, voice chat doesn't work.
Is anyone else having this issue too?
@realstyli do you get logged in to different servers depending on whether you captain a ship or join an open charter? Because that definitely seems to be the pattern with whether voice chat works or not. I am playing in the UK which I'm guessing means I would be joining an EU server? How do I check?
Problem I have is exactly as you describe. Indicator appears but no one can hear me.
If you join a Captained ship, it will depend on whomever set sail first. If it's your ship and you set sail, as you're in the UK, you should be on EU servers.
For Open Crew, although it tries to find the best connections, it can be on a server in any region.
On PC, you can turn on a ping display in settings which helps to determine what region you're in (for me, EU is typically 40-80, NAE is 120-160). This is unfortunately not an option on console. But if it feels laggier than normal when trying to do things, then you're probably not on EU.
